Multibody simulations are widely implemented in vehicle dynamics engineering due to their fast and reliable results. Multibody simulation serves as a very useful research and development tool for Formula Student teams. This paper focuses on the development of a multibody simulation for a Formula Student vehicle at the University of Bath, using IPG CarMaker. The vehicle model used is the Team Bath Racing (TBR) 17 racing car, was compliant with Formula Student regulations. A detailed multibody model was constructed, and its dynamic performance was tested against a real vehicle through spring and damping tests on tracks. The validation demonstrated the reliability and feasibility of the model. Based on these results, several simulations were conducted to compare the vehicle dynamics with parameter changes. The simulations provided valuable data for optimizing the current vehicle and guiding future development of new racing vehicles.
